According to mlbtraderumors.com the Detroit Tigers have avoided arbitration with Phil Coke. The two sides agreed upon a $1.1 million deal with $50,000 in incentives.
Phil Coke went 3-9 with a 4.47 ERA in 2011. Coke spent the first half of the season in the starting rotation, but with mixed results was moved back into the bullpen where Coke has had more success in his career as a situational lefty.
